Burnley host Sunderland on Saturday with boss Owen Coyle confident his side can retain their top-flight status.
The Clarets beat Manchester United and Everton in their first two home games but have suffered thumping defeats at Chelsea and Liverpool in their past two outings.
Coyle said: "All the great analysts out there think Burnley are going to go down, but that's up to them.
"What we know within our group, and our town, is that if we are at our best as we have been before, then we can win points and we'll do our utmost to make sure we stay in the top flight of English football."
